Nagasaki
Japan
Nagasaki was Japan's window to Europe for 200 closed-country years: Dutch traders at Dejima, Christian churches on the hillsides, China-town lanes — and the second atomic bomb, memorialized with devastating grace at the Peace Park. A hillside city of stairs, night views and quiet weight.
